Innovations And Environmental Engineering In The Energy Sector: Modern Management Experience

Abstract

In the context of modern economy, there are many global problems that humanity faces daily, one of which is the transition to clean and affordable energy. This problem arose a long time ago, but a particular relevance was acquired at the beginning of the XXI century. The Russian energy sector has only recently started practicing the use of clean alternative energy. Russians generally have little effective experience in implementation of ecological innovations and engineering. The following article presents the results of the research that generalizes the experience of ecological engineering and the implementation of innovations in enterprises of energy sector. The authors presented the features of environmental engineering as a modern trend in the energy sector. A comparative analysis of environmental innovations spread in the field of energy in Russia and abroad is undertaken. The results of the analysis indicate a slow growth rate of clean energy in Russia and the need for environmental engineering and innovation introducing in the energy industry. Authors bring to your attention the best Russian ecological management experience of local companies ROSATOM and RusHydro, the experience of foreign company ENGIE was studied as well. It was discovered that it is possible to use geothermal energy as there is approximately 15 times as much of it in the country opposed to coal. The study will promote the dissemination of the experience in management of implementation of ecological innovations and engineering in enterprises of Russian energy sector.
